I'm able to drag and drop a node. The treeview is loaded with files and folders on the HD. The tag of the node has the path to the file/folder. [code] I only want to be able to drag a node into a folder and not into a file, as it does with this code.
View 1 RepliesI'm having a treeview loaded with all the files and subfolders of a path. Each node is getting the filepath as tag. Once I have dragged a node (file/folder) I need to move the file(s)/(sub)folder to the new directory. Each file(s)/(sub)folder needs to get a new tag

I am building a 'shape editor' which looks very similar to the Visual Studio form designer. I have a Toolbox control that holds a few 'Shapes' (such as RectangleShape, EllipseShape, TriangleShape, etc) which the user should be able to drag to the design view ("Canvas") in any MDI form. The Toolbox control is just a TreeView except that I add ToolboxItems to it (which are inherited TreeNodes). This dragging however does not seem to work...

The following website appears to show you you might do Drag/Drop that works like explorer does but I don't know what the code would be in VB, what exactly i'd need or anything else. It's a quite large code base just to make it so you get the same effect as explorer even though it seems to be API's or .dll's that should handle most of the work.
If the API's & .dll's available for this don't handle most of it I don't see why not because well if your meant to get the same effect why is it going to be handled mostly by code? I would think it would be as easy as passing an image or file/folder as string & then there the image is & possibly the functions you want to be allowed or text to be displayed for the drag action & then a little more to determine where your trying to drag to so what the text should be changing to.
Anyways heres the website which has a lot of the information/code in non-vb language, even when translated to VB using online tools I couldn't figure out what did what or what pieces I needed to get a basic drag action to work that has said visual information like explorer does.[URL]..

View 1 RepliesIn my current project I've run into a problem with dragging and dropping from my app to Windows Explorer. My app requires an "Extraction" of a virtual file (almost like a ZIP/RAR archiver would). The problem is, with all of the dragging to explorer solutions I have found online requires you to have a extracted file already on the filesystem (most likely in a temp folder) before you initiate the drag-drop. I'm trying to do is be able to extract the file AFTER the drag-drop request has already been made to the explorer.

I've been successfully dragging one item at a time over from a listbox to a treeview, but now that I'm trying to adapt it to drag/drop multiple items, I've run into a problem.I'm getting an index out of range exception in the loop where I'm trying to gather the listbox items into a string array. Any index greater than 0 throws the exception, even though I have set the length to equal the number of selected items in the listbox. I've double-checked that this is the case many times. Watching the selecteditems.count value, I can see that it is equal to the number of items I have selected, naturally, but the exception is still thrown on this line:
sel(i) = AddonsList.SelectedItems.Item(i)
Here is the relevant drag/drop

Can it be drap and drop item to other form control??How to write the event when mouse up at the other form control?
I had a user ask me today if I could make it so they could simply drag and drop text from other programs into the app I've written. I found an old (2002 & 2003) article on drag and drop, but I'm sure things have been made better since then.
Anyone doing this today can point me in the right direction? Is this much of a pain to enable?
I am dragging a control over a different control as part of a drag/drop operation. AllowDrop is set for both the dragged control and the drop target. There is a DragDrop handler for the drop target, but when I drop on the target, the handler is never called, and nothing happens. I expect that I am overlooking something simple, but, as might be expected, I can't see it.
When I drag onto a different type of control, it is working correctly, and dragging to the control in question was once working correctly, but not anymore. I did make a bunch of changes, but the fundamental issue is that the dragdrop event is never raised for the control that is the drop target.

I have a picturebox that has a semi-complex image on it and also has a series of other pictureboxes, most of which are set to not visible. The way the program works, the user can click and drag a couple different items on the parent picturebox. The things they can drag are not actual controls, but parts of the image itself. That is all working fine. While testing, I had all of the subordinate pictureboxes (there are a variable number of them) visible showing a black background. I have now improved their implementation, so I changed the display so that only the subordinate pictureboxes that actually have something in them are visible. For all the others, they have .Visible = False.
The problem is that when I click and drag on one of the items in the parent picturebox, all the invisible pictureboxes become visible. They have no image in them, so they take on the color of the backgroud behind the parent picturebox. This is undesirable. I want the invisible pictureboxes to remain invisible during the drag and drop action. The one solution that seems promising is to set the image of all those pictureboxes to some transparent image such that, though they are visible, they will not appear as anything. A bit of testing shows that this technique would work.
I have finally got the drag and drop to work on my form, so the user can drop files on it. I have used the msdn example so i can get the whole filename (path + filename). But how do i get only the filename? (lol.zip) And maybe the path where it is?

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a renaming program, which I have done, but wanted to add drag and drop support. Firstly, when I drag and drop the files into a listbox they appear to be going in and are ordered randomly. I want them to go into the order they're dragged in. Secondly, instead of having the entire path such as:

I want just "The Big Bang Theory S01E01 - Pilot" to go into the listbox.
